This is the Christ Church Cathedral (if I am remembering the name correctly) where Handel’s Messiah debuted and also the home of a mummified cat and mouse in action.  That sentence makes no sense, but try to make sense of it.

The first day in Dublin, we were totally exhausted from the early train/ferry journey we had to make. We saw a ridiculous number of sheep on the way. It was pretty rad. We pretty much just went to eat at a restaurant across the street from our bed and breakfast and then went to the sweater shop where we made wooly purchases.
On day two, we took the free tour and saw this castle. Unfortunately, I can’t remember much about it other than it currently holds records of the city and that one of the Irish royalty-type’s sons was held captive in this tower by the British back in the day and that the walls are about 4 meters (???) thick.
